I want to see pictures of the nail clipping! Nothing turns 'cute' into 'blood-thirsty psychotic feline frenzy' quite as well as a carefully timed nail clipping without personal protective gear. I found a use for your stuffing-less pillow husk, Mitch! The Cat Bag....great for tossing kitty in so that you can tend to his talons without becoming a shish-ka-bob!

He looks so calm here.....obviously medicated.

My gut tells me Dano hasn't been on a Vanilla path in quite some time.

Always trust your gut instinct!

I've been on the receiving end of my psychotic black brick with talons one too many times during a quality nail clipping. Usually, he manages to get one right in the skin and latch on and then give me the look of 'Go ahead.....make my day!' No hissing, no squirming.....but we know the end result of the balance of power change. I've thought about the bag.....but our relationship is such that I'd probably leave him in it afterwards for payback. One thing about Munchkins...they may be short but they have some freakishly large muscles in those stubby legs.

Elbow length rubber gloves? Well, uh......ok.......wow. TMI (unless you have pictures). You just have them around the house for a thorough bathroom cleaning? Perhaps they're for the alternative / goth opera in Connecticut?

Geez....where did I get THAT from. Although, nothing is quite as stylish as full-length rubber opera gloves. I'm sure Gaga will have them soon if she already doesn't. No, I am not watching porn at 3pm!!

Hey, you just watch it buddy, before someone comes along and singes your pussy hair.

When I was a young blade enjoying my knowledge off where to drink 24 hours a day in little ole London ----- late one afternoon enthusiastically retelling a Yarn to 5 or 6 best friends my crutch emitted much smoke and our group reacted with alarm mirth and confusion.

A cardboard envelope off matches advertising the last drinking den tightly cocooned in my 501 ,s had been ignited by my movements and the alcohol and my friend from the Brazilian embassy,s prezzie had acted as quite an effective pain killer.

Oh what larks next week the time I missed the ashtray and the cab driver avoided the crash!!!

back over 20 years ago when i my ex and i first moved in together, she had this freakish giant maine coon, i had a silver doberman (maxwell, as in maxwells silver hammer) he was an awesome dog, dumber than a rock though. this cat moved in, and would be chill for weeks. but suddenly, out of the blue, she'd come bolting through the house like greased lightening howling like a banshee in heat and pull up in front of max. she'd slap him i swear a dozen times across across the face before he even got up from dozing. then she'd be gone just as fast. poor max always looked so hurt and confused, would look at me like why in the hell did you let that thing in the house

max used to eat my gym socks. found the old boy dead with a sock half out his ass. dumb dog.

Just an update. Left poor Goo out in the rain overnight 2 days ago. Parental guilt! We were out on our deck/balcony and didn't see her come out. We ate, came in, and went straight to bed.

They (Goo and Gay Pants) are still unpredictable in the evening and we thought they were both settled under the bed. Well... he was, she wasn't. Didn't discover it until the next day. I was frantic!! I called her name and heard her loud meow. Found her on the copper ledge looking a bit wet. Not drenched as she must have spent the night under the air conditioner.

Anyway, her expression was priceless once she knew that I found her. She trotted right in and talked up a storm while at the same time was giving me loving and gratitude like I was a fireman pulling up a kid that was just trapped in a well. Ugh! I felt so guilty but she seemed to not notice.

Since then, it's been nothing but greater trust. Go figure!

Picked some sunflowers today and here she is in all here glory. Oops, I started posting and forgot to get the pic loaded in photo bucket. Give me a minute.
